Hi,
It's been a while, but we've finally gotten to this particular ticket. Apologies for the delay.
Thanks for providing the patch. We will include this fix in our upcoming maintenance release.
How would you like to be credited for this patch? Does the following look ok to you?

"Thanks for a patch by Martin Pitt which got to us via Andrew Pollock."

Thanks,
Tomek Mrugalski
ISC
